I've hunted in places with plenty of both. Guess it depends on how long the hogs have been there.

I’ve seen snake populations plummet when hogs get established. That’s not a good thing. Its great. Then you trap the hogs and you have no hogs and fewer snakes. What I call a win win

Does anyone know if hogs are immune or only mildly affected by venomous snakes? Not immune. But... They WILL eat snakes. And, with the fat in/on them (hogs), they aren't affected by the venom. So hogs will take care of a snake infected area very quickly.

I think it's more of the hide is too tough on older hogs to get good penetration for the bite. I've found that if you toss a dead hog out for the buzzards it will lay there for weeks, split the hide with a box cutter and it's gone in days. I recently killed a big sow and split her down the back from neck to tail and in less than 48 hours all that was left was bones.

I shot 4 last year during rifle season and nothing touched them. So splitting them works Anything over about 40 lbs I split. Even the big boars are gone in 3-4 days. Had one with some good cutters I intended to go back and get but never found the lower jaw

Hell I'd rather have snakes than hogs on my area. Amen
